How To
How to Make A Garlic Press
A garlic press is an essential tool for any home cook. It can be used to quickly mince garlic into a paste. It is also useful for crushing whole cloves of garlic into buttery spreads and garlic salt.
If you don't yet have a garlic presse, you may be wondering where to get one. We have some tips to help get you started.
First of all, you'll need to get a large bowl. Place the bowl beneath the press, and then pour the crushed garlic in it. Now adjust the pressure regulator to the maximum.
Next, turn your handle clockwise to hear a click. The top end of the press should lift and reveal a flat area that allows you to slide your blade back and forth across the bowl. Continue to turn the handle counterclockwise, until the blades are closed.
Finally, take out the pressed garlic.
